I had to get vehicle plates a few weeks ago and got a close up look at the new Adams County Government Center. What an ugly group of buildings! They reminded me of a 1950's school building with totally unrelated building additions slapped on each side. Who signed off on these things? And the landscaping is pitiful.

I see in the latest issue of your newsletter that the Brighton City Center payment kiosk is closed for maintenance. I was happy to hear that. I hope it is closed for good and that the old outside box remains open. I was unhappy to see you move your payment kiosk from the old Brighton City Hall OUTSIDE to the new Brighton City Center INSIDE.

We would like to extend our thanks to Deb, Jose, Gloria and the entire staff of Palizzi Farms for the annual chili festival this past weekend. The produce was fresh & delicious; the entertainment was fun & family friendly, the food trucks offered lots of options. The firework show Sunday night was “icing on the cake”.

Brighton should be proud of this super new holiday tradition started by a thriving local business.

I know Stan Martin to be a man of intelligence, integrity and courage. He took an active stance to protect our rights to free speech including the right to gather at the seat of government to express views, criticize government policies and petition for redress of grievances. Due to Stan's efforts, supported by the ACLU, the Adams County Board of County Commissioners recinded on their attempt to impose "free speech zone" restrictions. My sincere appreciation to Stan for his hard work and dedication on behalf of the people!
